Over many years, why have we seen many, many references to "lowering the shoulder" here on the Forum in reference to player control charging fouls?
Did I miss something when I first learned high school rules?
I remember talking about legal guarding position, feet, verticality, movement, airborne players, torsos, ducking, etc., but I don't remember discussing lowering shoulders (other than getting head and shoulders past the defender).
Was I absent that day?
Was it "Senior Skip Day"?
